ClayMitt
Engineered benefits
Clay-polymer face
A rubberised polymer surface shears bonded contaminants off the paint as it glides.
Covers panels fast
A mitt-sized face decontaminates a bonnet in minutes, not half an hour.
Survives a drop
Unlike a clay bar, a dropped mitt rinses clean and goes straight back to work.
Reusable for seasons
Dozens of cars per mitt with a rinse after every use.
Pairs with ClayWave
Designed to glide on a proper lubricant film for marring-free decon.
Glass and trim too
Smooths overspray and fallout off glass and gloss trim as well.
Application protocol
Wash the car first
Decontamination always follows a full wash, never clay a dusty panel.
Lubricate well
Mist ClayWave generously over a half-panel; the mitt must never run dry.
Glide lightly
Move in straight lines with no pressure until the drag disappears and it glides.
Wipe and continue
Buff the residue, re-mist, and move on. Rinse the mitt face regularly.
Technical data
Field questions
Used with plenty of lubricant and light pressure, no. Any clay process can mar if run dry, keep the film wet and the mitt rinsed.
The drag disappears and the mitt glides silently. Feel the paint with your fingertips in a plastic bag, it should be glass-smooth.
Rinse it thoroughly under running water and continue, that is the big advantage over a clay bar.
Two or three times a year, and always before applying a coating, sealant or wax.
A dedicated lubricant like ClayWave keeps a far more consistent slip film; suds collapse too quickly under the mitt.
